FISHING: Good
Summer run steelhead have made there way into the fly water and fishing remains good. Stick to the low light hours and your chances go up. These summer fish are very aggresive and will strike at surface fly's. The greased line technigue works great on these summer fish. Use The trusty Greenbutt Skunk sz 06-02, Orange and black Practitioner, Purple Perils, and Elk Hair Skaters for waking flys. Covering this water with one cast and four steps down will increase your odds. Drive the road and try and spot fish before you cast. Take advantage of other friendly anglers and talk to them for advice. These fish move through and finding the "pods" of fish is important. Stop by The Fly Box @ 1255 NE 3rd st in Bend or call 541-388-3330 for current river flows and current updates.
